On a side note, I also have original CD's of the RH 6.2 installation (binary and source), which was readable. The iso image I created from the CD has the correct hash. However, the damn thing fails to install in a virtual machine. I use VirtualBox, but have tried EQMU and VMware as well, with the same results. The anaconda installer bombs out with a traceback in the middle of the installation, each time in a different place. Sometimes it almost gets to the end, but it never installed completely. I am puzlled by what might be wrong, since I used to install that distro successfully back in the day on physical hardware. I tried to do a minimal install (hoping to avoid the traceback), tweaked the installation parameters (partitions, choice of packages, etc.), all to no effect. I also tried tweaking the vm specs to look more like typical hardware back then, without success. Google didn't help either. Does anyone have any ideas?
